Following last Sunday’s church attack in Ondo state, a Nigerian journalist described the country as “in shock.”
The attack was unexpected, according to Layo Olarinde, a Channels TV correspondent who spoke on JoySMS on Monday, June 6.
This is due to the tranquil environment of the state in which the incident occurred, she argues.
Layo further stated that activities in the State have come to a halt as a result of the attack.
“Ondo state is in the south-western part of the country. It is relatively one of the peaceful states in the country. So this attack on Sunday was something that was really shocking and it shook the whole country.”
“It is a somber state now and activities are down. Families of the victims are mourning.”
According to her, the state of Ondo is currently “awful.”
The journalist also revealed that today, Monday, June 6, the Christian community will have a peaceful protest.
“There is going to be a peaceful protest in Nigeria by the Christian community.”
The priest of St Francis Catholic Church, where the incident occurred, was abducted together with other church members on Sunday, June 5th 2022.
